Title: Story of a girl
Author: Sara Zarr
This book is about a girl named Deanna with a very regretful past. When Deanna was just 13 years old her father caught her in a boy named Tommy Webber's car. Deanna didn't even love the boy, and she was uncertain if she even 'liked' him, This totally jeopardized Deanna and her fathers relationship. Deanna lost the most important thing in her fathers and hers relationship, and that was trust. I think trust in one of the most important themes in this book, because we can all relate to this. We all want that trust from our parents, but not all of us get it.
Another theme I that I think is important in this book is body image. Deanna's reputation also got demolished. She is now known as the "school slut". Obviously that is not a title that anyone would want to be known as. Everywhere she goes theirs whispers going around, and stares. Body Image is important to everyone, it's becoming more and more affective towards teenagers, and if your "image" is corrupted then you feel like everything has corrupted.
